French Fries Levi X reader

Chapter 7

A/n: for now on, the bold will be the English translation :)

Y/N POV

As I woke up, I felt a tiny bit of heat against my skin. I softly opened my eyes only to be greeted with a ray of sunshine. Someone must of opened the curtains for me. Who would it be though? I shrugged it off and went to change and shower before training.

After I was done showering, I went to the mess hall. I wanted to talk to Braden and Eleanor to inform them about Eren coming. He and I were pretty close. We became friends during the trainees because he and I were paired for sparring one day and then we became friends from that. As I approached the table that I met them at, I saw that they were both already there starting their meals.

"Hey," I said when I made it to the table.

"Hey!" Braden replied with enthusiasm. "We grabbed some food for you because we heard that you might be a bit later when it comes to waking up."

"Who told you that?" I asked curiously.

"Corporal Levi himself," Braden said looking around.
"chiffres," you said under your breath.
(Translation: figures)

After having a short conversation with the siblings, I went out to train. I heard that Eren would be coming here during the evening because he had to go to court. Most of the superiors had went to the trial, so you were stuck training by yourselves.

I started out with the knives. I honestly just wanted to be alone at the time, so I ended up just practicing some moves with the knives. I taught myself different fighting styles and different tricks with the knives. I never usually have someone teaching me how to do things. I prefer teaching myself. That's why I can never answer people when they ask how I learnt how to do things. I just taught myself after my mom and brother died. My father honestly encouraged me when it came to practicing my fighting skills. Of course he didn't approve at first, but after I told him I wanted to contribute to humanity, he humbly agreed to let me train myself. I really only got 1st rank in the trainees because of my hand to hand combat. I mean I can use 3DMG and slice titans, but I'm mainly trained in combat with others.

As I continued to train out in the dusty field, something caught my eye. I squinted and saw Eleanor. She seemed to be training in the woods, slicing the fake titans napes, one by one. My jaw dropped. She was outstanding. Not missing a single titan. Yeah, her slices weren't perfect, but she was still pretty amazing. I ran over to the training woods and yelled, "ELEANOR!"

"Y/N?" She questioned, guessing who she thought the voice belonged to.

"Yeah," I said, out of breath.

"What are you doing out here, slicing the dummies by yourself?" I said between breaths.

"I wanted to work on my accuracy," she responded, almost hesitant.

"I feel like it's something else"

"Nope, just that," she responded, biting her lip.

"C'mon, were friends, you can tell me. I may seem a little unemotional, but  I have just as much feelings as the-"

"Ok," Eleanor cut me off.

"I'm sorry what?"

"Ok. I'll tell you the real reason," She somewhat repeated, "Honestly, I just wanna catch up to Braden. He's always ahead of me in almost anything athletic. I just wanna catch up to him so we could be on the same level. I decided to practice titan slaying because he struggles in this category. I wanna train so I can help him in this category. I know this might seem somewhat stupid but I just wanna help him while being on the same level as him." She finished.

"That's so sweet," I whispered. "Well besides the fact that you wanna be on the same level as him. That's kinda something that every little sibling sees though. They always wanna be on the same level as the older one. I'm not gonna stop you from training because I can't see much harm in that. Do what you wanna do, just don't overwork yourself. I don't wanna see that and I'm almost 100% positive that Braden doesn't want to either," I finished up my little lecture with.

After that little speech, I was off. I sure as hełł didn't want to miss Eren arriving. I also didn't want questions from Eleanor as to why I went so wise on her. I always had my way with words for some reason. Maybe that's why people think I'm emotionless, I don't really show much emotion when I talk.

After waiting for what seems to be forever, I decide that I wanted to draw. When I was little, I took up drawing as one of my main hobbies. I honestly loved the idea of being able to create anything, just with a little ink and feather. I grabbed my sketchbook from the area I hide it under my bed in and flipped to a clean page. I decode to sketch the tree outside my window because I love to draw nature since it's so beautiful.

As I was adding the leaves to the tree, I hear horses going to the front entrance.

'It has to be Eren and Levi' I think.

I shove my sketchbook into the box and push the box under my wooden bed and run out of my room. I accidentally slam the door as I was running. I hopped down the stairs and calmed down before I opened the front doors. I slowly peeked out as I saw Eren and Levi leaving the carriage. Being the clumsy idiot I am, I trip as I open the door. Yet for some reason, I don't feel coming in contact with the dirt pathway. I slowly opened my (EC) eyes, only to meet silver orbs looking into mine.

"Tch, cesser d'être si maladroit, gosse." (Tch, stop being so clumsy, brat.) Levi whispered to me, before pulling us both up and wiping the invisible dirt off of his pants. You were left with a cherry red face and a confused Eren.

As I entered the building, I tackled Eren in one of my signature bear hugs. Then, I started to catch up with my old friend. Little did I know, there was a corporal in the corner, narrowing his eyes at the two new cadets.

A/N: if any of this doesn't make sense, it might be because it's the middle of the night, I'm listening to music, and because I haven't edited this yet. Also, I tried to do more character development with Eleanor and yourself, just showing who you really are. I also just watched a whole season of doctor who right before I wrote this, so that might explain something about this chapter. I don't know why but that's all I was thinking about as I wrote this.

Also, if Levi seems out of character or anyone seems like that it's bc I haven't seen aot in like half a year. I might re watch it if I have the time. Ok bye for now <3
